C.3 Register Map Header File

The register map settings file is provided for use when developing your own code. The file can be included in your project to use the settings from the evaluation software.

The first section contains #defines that provide constants for:

  • total register count
  • register address (referenced by device register name appended with "_ADDRESS)
  • register value and setting (reference by device register name appended with "_VALUE") (writable registers only)

The second section contains a struct definition and an array of the structs that contain the register address and value for each of the writeable registers:
